Makes the lives of many people miserable and often leads to destruction. We know of no remedy for dyspepsia more successful than Hoods Sarsaparilla. It acts gently, yet surely and efficiently, tones the stomach and other organs, removes the faint feeling, creates a good appetite, cures headache and refreshes the burdened mind. Give Hoods Sarsa- pariIla fair trial. It will do you good.
